12 THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE
A WORD ABOUT YOUR KEYS
The authorized dealer that sold you your new vehicle has the key code numbers for your vehicle locks. These numbers can be used to order duplicate keys. Ask your authorized dealer for these numbers and keep them in a safe place.
Vehicle Key
Ignition Key Removal
1. Place the shift lever in PARK (if equipped with an automatic transmission).
2. Turn the ignition switch to the ACC (Accessory) position.
3. Push the key and cylinder inward and rotate the key to the LOCK position.
4. Remove the key from the ignition switch lock cylinder.
Ignition Switch Positions
1 — LOCK 3 — ON/RUN 2 — ACC (ACCESSORY) 4 — START
NOTE: If you try to remove the key before you place the shift lever in PARK, the key may become trapped tem­porarily in the ignition switch cylinder. If this occurs, rotate the key to the right slightly, then remove the key as
THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE 13
described. If a malfunction occurs, the system will trap the key in the ignition cylinder to warn you that this safety feature is inoperable. The engine can be started and stopped but the key cannot be removed until you obtain service.
WARNING!
•
Never leave children alone in a vehicle. Leaving unattended children in a vehicle is dangerous for a number of reasons. A child or others could be seriously or fatally injured. Don’t leave the keys in the ignition. A child could operate power win­dows, other controls, or move the vehicle.
•
Do not leave children or animals inside parked vehicles in hot weather. Interior heat build-up may cause serious injury or death.
2
14 THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE
CAUTION!
An unlocked car is an invitation to thieves. Always remove the key from the ignition and lock all the doors when leaving the vehicle unattended.
Locking Doors With A Key
You can insert the key with either side up. To lock the door, turn the key to the right. To unlock the door, turn the key to the left. Refer to “Maintenance Procedures” in “Maintaining Your Vehicle” for further information.
Key-In-Ignition Reminder
Opening the driver’s door when the key is in the ignition and the ignition position is LOCK or ACC, sounds a signal to remind you to remove the key.
NOTE: With the driver’s door open and the key in the ignition, the power door locks will not lock and Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter will not function.
SENTRY KEY姞
The Sentry Key威 Immobilizer System prevents unauthor­ized vehicle operation by disabling the engine. The system does not need to be armed or activated. Operation is automatic, regardless of whether the vehicle is locked or unlocked.
The system uses ignition keys that have an embedded electronic chip (transponder) to prevent unauthorized vehicle operation. Therefore, only keys that are pro­grammed to the vehicle can be used to start and operate the vehicle. The system will shut the engine off in two seconds if someone uses an invalid key to try to start the engine.
NOTE: A key that has not been programmed is also considered an invalid key, even if it is cut to fit the ignition switch lock cylinder for that vehicle.
During normal operation, after turning on the ignition switch, the Vehicle Security Light will turn on for three
seconds for a bulb check. If the light remains on after the bulb check, it indicates that there is a problem with the electronics. In addition, if the Vehicle Security Light begins to flash after the bulb check, it indicates that someone used an invalid key to try to start the engine. Either of these conditions will result in the engine being shut off after two seconds.
If the Vehicle Security Light turns on during normal vehicle operation (vehicle running for longer than 10 sec­onds), it indicates that there is a fault in the electronics. Should this occur, have the vehicle serviced as soon as possible by an authorized dealer.
CAUTION!
The Sentry Key威 Immobilizer system is not compat­ible with some after-market remote starting systems. Use of these systems may result in vehicle starting problems and loss of security protection.
THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE 15
All of the keys provided with your new vehicle have been programmed to the vehicle electronics.
Replacement Keys
NOTE: Only keys that are programmed to the vehicle electronics can be used to start and operate the vehicle. Once a Sentry Key威 is programmed to a vehicle, it cannot be programmed to any other vehicle.
CAUTION!
Always remove the Sentry Keys威 from the vehicle and lock all doors when leaving the vehicle unat­tended.
At the time of purchase, the original owner is provided with a four-digit Personal Identification Number (PIN). Keep the PIN in a secure location. This number is required for authorized dealer replacement of keys. Du­plication of keys may be performed at an authorized
2
16 THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE
dealer or by following the customer key programming procedure. This procedure consists of programming a blank key to the vehicle electronics. A blank key is one that has never been programmed.
NOTE: When having the Sentry Key威 Immobilizer System serviced, bring all vehicle keys with you to an authorized dealer.
Customer Key Programming
If you have two valid Sentry Keys威, you can program new Sentry Keys威 to the system by performing the following procedure:
1. Cut the additional Sentry Key威 Transponder blank(s) to match the ignition switch lock cylinder key code.
2. Insert the first valid key into the ignition switch. Turn the ignition switch to the ON/RUN position for at least three seconds, but no longer than 15 seconds. Then, turn the ignition switch to the LOCK position and remove the first key.
3. Insert the second valid key into the ignition switch. Turn the ignition switch to the ON/RUN position within 15 seconds. After 10 seconds, a chime will sound. In addition, the Vehicle Security Light will begin to flash. Turn the ignition switch to the LOCK position and remove the second key.
4. Insert a blank Sentry Key威 into the ignition switch. Turn the ignition switch to the ON/RUN position within 60 seconds. After 10 seconds, a single chime will sound. In addition, the Vehicle Security Light will stop flashing. To indicate that programming is complete, the Vehicle Security Light will turn on again for three seconds and then turn off.
The new Sentry Key威 is programmed. The Remote
Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter will also be pro­grammed during this procedure.
Repeat this procedure to program up to eight keys. If you do not have a programmed Sentry Key威, contact your authorized dealer for details.
NOTE:
dealer to have all remaining keys erased from the sys­tem’s memory. This will prevent the lost key from starting your vehicle. The remaining keys must then be repro­grammed. All vehicle keys must be taken to an authorized dealer at the time of service to be reprogrammed.
General Information
The Sentry Key威 system complies with FCC rules Part 15 and with RSS-210 of Industry Canada. Operation is subject to the following conditions:
